The first filmic interpretation of Proust's entire novel, Philpott stretches narrative form into rich and varied experimental territories, providing a visual feastand sonic immersion, using AI and unique digital production techniques, to reveal the vast panoramic structure of Proust's great masterwork and provide a 21st century foundation for this timeless 20th century epic. A new form of story-telling for a modern age. Closer to documentary invention, rejecting costume drama. Closer to art than stage. Writing in pictures and music.
